Did anyone see Tex's interview before game one?

Such a disingenuous putz. I was not on the Tex bandwagon because I don’t think he is worth a gazillion bucks but anyway…

He was such a schmuck ; commented that he hoped fans wouldn’t wish ill & death on his family. Whatever, get over yourself, it isn’t that serious Tex.

Plenty, I'd expect.

His arm should be well stretched. Lots of good sized outings in ST, 4 innings for wake, 5.1 innings last time out. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him reach 90.

So far, I've NEVER felt insecure about Masterson starting.

He’s never been the type to let a game get away from him. And right now he’s looking better than usual.

Unfortunately, his arm action scares the hell out of me. I can’t see him being able to keep it up for 150+ IP per year.

The only good reason to move Joba to the pen would be if you needed more room in the dugout. Joba is a fat load.

It was actually kinda funny how I broke the news to my mom (her:Tek::you:Manny).

I was out with my family and we had the DVR recording the game. My sister was asking why we were recording the game (she doesn’t get sports), and my mom said “What if Tek hits a Grand Slam?” When he hit it, I got a text alert on my cell, went up to her, and said, “Remind me again why we are recording this game?”

He's made some boneheaded basrunning mistakes this season, iirc.

As has much of the rest of the team. Papi trying to steal. After you already got the tying run, and there’s no double play to worry about, you sit at first and wait for the home run / double to drive you in.

its 11:30 am,

I’m at working following it on gameday. I could get the mlb tv package thing but its not really a good example for me to set for the staff. We are going into our version of winter so its down to about 60F, quite cool for sydney :-)

It hit 90F in Boston

yesterday. We just jumped from late winter into Summer, completely passing over Spring.

They will not stop with the Tex Talk

Someone in the booth needs to mention that the Yanks “took” ARod away from the Red Sox too & the Sox have done OK .

Stop talking about bunting.

It’s over. Give it up.

For those who were helping me with my campaign ideas:

Thanks, but I just decided to use my school’s initials (BSHS) and my own to create a connection.

I won't.

I’m just trying to make sure we don’t screw up after having the best start of any class in history – we raised ~$2000 at our fundraiser this year.

does anyone think Tito called that or was Ells acting on his own?

Ells.

Cause Tito was just like WTF to him and Ells was ’splaining himself.

Tito would be an awesome dad.

Remember last year after Lester’s no-no?

On a related note, that was almost a year ago. Wow.

I dunno man...

That Yankee pen is pretty shut down…

And by shut down, I mean our whole 1-9 may have a homer by the end of the night.

sweet

So in this series, a balk by Joba, catchers interference yesterday, stealing home AND Drew hitting with RISP!! Its all happening!

Poll--how long does Masterson go?

I think that Tito will want to save his bullpen….at least to the 7th maybe 9

This game turned awesome in a hurry.
